So! This thing I've been working on! Basically Miu Miu's offices were very very nice and let me borrow a few pieces from the Spring collection so I could take pictures for a gift I am making and for this here blog. I mean, that Spring collection was too good, it haunted my dreams and dominated my tumblr and also did I mention that it still haunts my dreams and still dominates my tumblr? No? Well then, I should tell you that it still haunts my dreams and still dominates my tumblr. I sent everything back today, and while it was a very painful thing to do, it was also for the best. All it might take is one extra wear to those kitten heels for my nasty germs to cause them to disintegrate and turn to silk dust right beneath my feet. And that would be tragic! Also, I get attached to things, and also, my camera would blow up after taking so many pictures. (Look at me, being all optimistic - a rare occurrence!) So, the first batch.

I've wanted to take personal hero Courtney Love-inspired pictures for a while and the finally warm weather and Miu Miu allowed me to try and do her hopefully at least a little justice. My first and second grader neighbors saw me dragging out the tripod and wanted to help me with the photos but I wasn't sure how to explain my smudged makeup, or heavy lipstick, or huge high heels, or, uh, naked people all over the dress. I am such a positive influence!

veery beautiful, and you are so lucky to have some miu miu collection! That's a hot trends for pattern (cildhood pattern) and you combine it with socks ? greeaat. But i think it would be greater if the socks is white i think..and for the hair, back in nude blond? absolutely beautywww.ohsoglossyeyes.blogspot.com

Holy crap Tavi you are blowing my mind. The first thing I thought when I saw these photos was "Whoa she looks like Courney Love!" and then I read that that's what you were going for so great job, you totally captured her look. How you were able to give all that glorious Miu Miu back is a mystery to me, I'm not sure if I would have been able to!

I was going to say that you REALLY look like Courtney Love in your first picture! Also...I kind of want to add that...you're growing up! Obviously. But your face is maturing in a good way. :) You're super lucky to be able to wear Miu Miu!

OH MY GOSH these are amazing, you wear the clothes beautifully and you look fantastic, i could go on and on and on and praise you until I ran out of adjectives for good but I stop here hopefully before you think Imma crazy. Well done!

Wow, you look stunning! Could totally tell it was courtney inspired by looking at the photos, I was obsessed with courtney as a teenager and still completely influenced by her early 90's style, never gets old! Totally jealous of those heels especially! xx

Uh you look so GREAT. Obviously omgomgooooooomg Miu Miu I am incredibly jealous, but also you look like you suddenly aged 4 or so years and are in the middle of the horrid thing we call teenagedom. It's probably the lipstick. Whatever the case, you look divine and I def. see the Courtney influence.

:-))) The photos seem to indicate that these clothes are an extension of your soul - which I have no doubt is the case! Well, even if you can't have them, at least you will have these images to remind you of what a killer combination "Tavi + Miu Miu Spring Collection" is.

I assume these pics are taken before the one with the shorts and the Gap Jacket and the badges? Lookin stunning miss.Lovin the Sherrie Currie hair as much as I love the one with the dark roots from previous.

Oh dear you are so lucky to have been able to borrow those items! The red lipstick and shade of your hair looks really good, recently you seem to have developed such a lovely more mature style if that makes sense.You really should consider modeling at some point or something!

It makes me sad that there exists something so beautiful in the world that I will never get to see or touch, let alone wear :( You look awesome, but then again, that Miu Miu collection is so beautiful it makes me want to cry a little bit....

tavi...you look incredible. like, these are soooooooooooo beautiful! and i dont mean to sound like your great aunt maude here but, you are blossoming into SUCH A FINE YOUNG LADY. seriously, look totally non-gremlin like here (dw i love the gremlin) and just like a pretty sophisticated whimsical yet edgy porcelain doll. not in a creepy way. you never fail to inspire!

you look uber good with the red lipstick, and I like how you did your eye makeup, its like a little gold in certain areas it looks to me or that can just be your skin tone, anyways, I love this post, and you look great!

wow, I am in love with different interpretations of miu miu, and in fact did a massive ode to the SS 2010 collection on my blog. I love the way you have conveyed the ambience with the setting & red lips. If you want to check out my blog, here it is themondayissue.blogspot.com. Hope you had a wonderful time with the miu miu :)

I just cannot believe that you are wearing those amazing clothes. I think that that collection is my favorite ever. First off, it has been haunting me too! And the thought that I will never own something from that collection is terrifying. You look great in these photos, can't wait for more! Also, we are in a poem unit for English and we had to write ballads, and odes, etc. All of mine were praising either Miuccia or the collection. I am so happy to see these pieces on you! How do those amazing shoes feel? Do they make you feel amazing? Super, even? Let's hear all of the details about how you felt about this collection. Thanks for the great post! You really know how to put a good start to the day!

Wow kiddo - great photos and your look in that miu miu dress and shoes is awe inspiring. I actually like the B&W photo best - looks straight out of a magazine layout. You do look like you jumped straight past high school and into college. Love the hair - although I loved your hair ALOT in your last photos too!

Oh My GoshOh My GoshYou Look amazing and the hair :DLove the LipstickAnd i love that Dress Yup im GeoulusVisit my Blog. http://new-to-fashion.blogspot.com/I assure you if i was to get a comment of you i would die. . . But i would be happy before i died Xx

I always wonder whether you read ALL these comments (coz there's just so many...), but I just have to write this - when I saw these photos - and especially the second one, I thought - OH, god, is she trying to make a Courtney Love pose? Because she totally does :)

Anyway, the dress is gorgeous and, as for Courtney, all I can say is - I wish she get back to her awesomeness, because she's such a mess sometimes lately

holy crap! you gained three years since the last picture! I thought this was an editorial picture you posting up as inspiration! It's really pretty and I love the nice combination of your hair and makeup and pale skin (if that makes any sense).
